The history of the estate goes back to Norman times, but by the 17th century it was owned by the Morewood family, who were linked to local industry, mainly in coal mining.

The parklands and gardens date from the mid-18th century onwards.

The house itself is now in use as a restaurant, conference and wedding venue.
